Last updated 1 year ago

EduScrum was originally developed in the Netherlands and is used in public schools to achieve educational goals through project-based learning. In this Agile educational approach, the teacher decides what students need to learn based on educational objectives, which are then translated into projects.

Similar to the Scrum method used in software development, in , people form teams to carry out tasks. Each team consists of a team captain (referred to as the eduScrum master), a teacher (the product owner), and a team of students. Together, they prepare for the eduScrum Agile cycle, which includes planning, an iterative working phase, a review, and a retrospective.

During the planning phase, they set the teaching backlog, assignments, and teamwork agreements. In the working phase, students complete tasks related to the project and track progress visually using a Kanban board with categories like "To Do," "In Progress," and "Done." Students also have a stand-up meeting to discuss their progress.

After each working cycle, the comes together for a more comprehensive meeting to review the progress. Students present the results of their projects using presentations and other materials. Following the review meeting, there is a retrospective meeting where individuals and the team reflect on the process and how the learning experience was for them both individually and as a group. As a result of the retrospective meeting, the team decides on one improvement they'd like to implement in the next teamwork cycle. For individuals, the retrospective meeting helps answer the question, "What skills do I want to develop in the next cycle?" This contributes to updating their personal learning portfolio.

After the review and retrospective, the teams move on to re-plan and start another working cycle, followed by a review and retrospective. This process defines the .
